Cameron Frye's 'Ferris Bueller's' Crib Snapped Up For $1.06M

"It's very beautiful and very cold, and you're not allowed to touch anything."

"The place is like a museum. It's very beautiful and very cold, and you're not allowed to touch anything."

Over the weekend, some lucky bastard procured an epic slice of pop-culture memorabilia in the form of the midcentury glass-and-steel house featured in John Hughes' 1986 classic, Ferris Bueller's Day Off.

The famous crib where Ferris (Matthew Broderick) retrieves best pal Cameron (Alan Ruck) for the movie's titular day off, was sold for US$1.06 million after almost five years on the market and an initial price listing of over $2 million, according to the Chicago Tribune. Sources will neither confirm or deny whether the buyer was fictional sausage royalty Abe Froman, but whomever it is scored themselves a legitimate bargain.
